UK DEBT COLLECTION - how and why they lie to you Part 3

Why do collection agencies persistently lie to the debtor, the press and the public at large? It is not just for money, but also because they actually believe themselves to be the last gasp between economic stability and financial ruin. As we shall see with this message, the truth is anything but, and we shall also see that they as in my previous recordings are irrelevant, almost utterly useless and in the eyes of most, an inconvenience.Like sharks, once they smell blood (or money), they will attack. However, such a parallel would be insulting to sharks, since recent research has shown that sharks do possess intelligent characteristics, such as memory and a sense of peril. This is more than can be said for the staff at these companies, who will selectively lie, threaten and bully if they think theres a chance they can worm money out of you.You sent an angry letter to them? What letter. You sent a payment last month? What payment? You have a settlement letter proving you paid off this debt with the last company it was with? The last company dont have any record of this, so it must have been sent out by fluke.Well, this message exposes and takes apart many of the most common lies or half-truths that such companies will use against you. Im sorry the whole message is a long one, but with lying and collection agencies in the UK as anyone who has had to deal with one already knows - theres a lot of ground to cover.***1 small mistake made is during the 'Rankin Vs HBOS' dissection. This is untrue - it should have stated that it WAS a High Court case. But no legal precedent was set, and the necessity of a valid CCA was amplified by the judge. The DCAs will omit to mention that part. The judge actually held Mr Rankin at fault for his manner, which was bad enough to swing the case in the favour of the creditor. Hardly a legal precedent when the judge decides to make an example of the plaintiff.Yes, I did see the Panorama programme, and yes, I think the Rankins came across as textbook 'debt avoiders' that the DCAs like to paint all their 'customers' with***

Why Sonia cannot dump Shivraj Patil ?

Home Minister Shivraj Patil is so jobless that he can fly the IAF for Sonia benefit even though he had absolutely no official business transact in Srinagar that was worthy of public mention. He will do so at the expense of the Nations Defence Apparatus.Offstumped poser to the Home Minister: Sir, do you have any self respect left to be taken seriously as the custodian of our Internal Security ?Offstumped poser to Sonia Gandhi: Madam, do you have such a thing as shame for your blatant misuse of the Indian Air Force and the National Defence Apparatus for your Party Junkets ?How Jobless is the Home Minister ?apart from of course sponsoring IAF Junkets for his madamSince Offstumped posted this piece some more findings. The MHA spent 25 crores in 2006-2007 on Civil Aviation all of it was unplanned expenditure, any ones guess how much of the 25 crores was spent on IAF flights to ferret Sonia Gandhi to Congress meetings like the one in Chakur, Latur on October 30 2006. A similar amount was budgeted for 2007-2008.Consider this Sonia Gandhi was in Srinagar to attend a womens rally organized by the Congress Party. Unfortunately Sonia Gandhi was to also cut short her trip to rush New Delhi to meet Mexican President Felipe Calderon Hinojosa. How can Sonia do both, well fly the IAF. But there is a catch. She is not entitled to fly the IAF. So what does she do ?In comes the gutless wonder and showpiece of a Home Minister, Mr. Shivraj Patil.It looks like gutless wonder Shivraj Patil accompanied her to attend the womens rally in Srinagar.Now in yesterdays post we examined the policy for Other Entitled Persons, OEP, the category to which Shivraj Patil belongs by virtue of being the Home Minister. Based on the OEP 3 questions ariseWhat official business was the Home Minister attending to at a congress party event in SrinagarWhy did he not use commercial air ?Has the MHA paid the IAF the cost of flying Sonia Gandhi to a congress party rally in Srinagar ?Most importantly if it was a Shivraj Patil sponsored IAF junket that Sonia hopped on why are all news reports calling it Sonias IAF flight and not the Home Ministers IAF flight.In fact so irrelevant was Shivraj Patils presence in Srinagar that there is no mention whatsoever in any of the media reports that the near miss mid-air had Indias Home Minister at risk. In fact Offstumped had to literally scrounge news reports to find out which OEP sponsored the Srinagar IAF Junket for Sonia Gandhi only to find Shivraj Patils name in the footnotes in some obscure news site.In fact on Sept 10th the day Shivraj Patil accompanied Sonia to Srinagar there is virtually no soundbite, official release attributed to him for his official visit to Srinagar. Neither the Press Information Bureau nor the Ministry of Home Affairs had anything to say about his Srinagar visit. Mr. Patil could have as well been a zombie on this IAF junket to Srinagar and nobody would have missed him it appears.So how jobless is the Home Minister that he abandons official duty in these testing times of internal security to flout policy and sponsor a IAF Junket so Sonia Gandhi can troop over to Srinagar for a Congress Party function while all this time the Home Minister is merely a mute spectator ?This is not the first time Shivraj Patil has misused his OEP status to facilitate a IAF flight for Sonia Gandhi. On Jan 12 2006 he accompanied Sonia Gandhi to Kalinga Nagar in an IAF Chopper. On 10 Aug 2006 he accompanied Sonia Gandhi to Amalapuram in an IAF Chopper. October 30 once again he accompanied Sonia Gandhi in an IAF Planer and Chopper to Bidar, Chakur in Latur (Shivrajs home constituency) to attend a farmers rally. None of these IAF Junkets were for Defence purposes. Almost all of them were for Congress Party related activities with the primary focus being on Sonia Gandhi and Shivraj Patil incidentally present.Shivraj Patil is not the only one sponsoring IAF Junkets for Sonias convenience. On 22 Jan 2006 the Prime Minister carried her to Hyderabad in an IAF plane, 2 Feb 2006 another IAF Junket to Bandlapalli in Andhra. Mar 26 2006 Sudheendra Kulkarni writing in the Indian Express during the Office of Profit crisis highlights how Sonia Gandhi had been misusing her Office of Profit through IAF Junkets thrown by Pranab Mukherjee then Defence Minister.Here is a particularly galling episode that resulted from a Sonia Gandhi IAF Junket. The 10 Aug IAF travel in Andhra resulted in the IAF Choppers not airdropping food for the flood affected. The Times News Network on 12 Aug 2006 carries this story on how flood victims go hungry courtersy Madams abuse of the IAFs vital resources.The abuse of the IAF goes on .
